[NPASYRIA] Military sources in the opposition said on Thursday that the Russian forces have evacuated many of their posts in the northern countryside of Latakia and Homs countryside. The evacuated posts were transferred to the Lebanese Hezbollah."The Russian forces abandoned their posts in the Jabal al-Turkmen and Jabal al-Akrad and the vicinity of the town of Kasab, north of Latakia. The posts were transferred to the Lebanese Hezbollah," the sources told North Press.
"The Russian forces’ evacuation in Lattakia coincided with withdrawing several KAMAZ military vehicles from their bases deployed in the city of Palmyra, east of Homs governorate," the sources added.
